Man Arrested for Stealing from Kwik Star… 23 Times!

I don't know how anyone could steal from Kwik Star. Their employees are so nice, it'd be like stealing from family. A Wisconsin man was arrested Monday for doing just that though. Police say Karl Kinyon has pumped gas and left without paying nearly two dozen times and owes Kwik Star approximately $800.

According to the Herald Times Reporter, police tracked Kinyon down after his most recent gas theft and when they asked why he did it he said, “he was in a hurry to get to court, and didn’t pay for the gas.” No word on what his court appearance was for, but I'm sure stealing isn't going to help his case! Although, Kinyon doesn't consider it stealing. According to the police report, he said he has a “layaway” system with Kwik Star and “always pays for the gas, eventually.”

Note: Kwik Star is known as Kwik Trip in Wisconsin, where the crimes occurred.
